In common law criminal proceedings, a body made up of laypeople, like a jury, receives accusations of a crime, hears the case, and decides whether to indict or not. It was abolished in the UK. It is also called a grand jury. Source: Encyclopaedia Britannica Concise Encyclopedia About Encyclopaedia Britannica Concise Encyclopedia Information |
